Have you noticed how often you’ll hear someone belittling or
criticizing another person by calling him/her “an animal”? When I hear
such a remark, I always think, “Well, that’s really a compliment!”
After all, it’s the human animal that has been destroying the planet
and its inhabitants, both human and nonhuman, isn’t it?
Look how billions of dollars are spent on wars. And with the wide
array of vegetation available, look how most humans insist on consuming
the body parts and secretions of the “lower animals.” These human
carnivores, many of whom claim to believe in God, ignore their Creator’s
original instruction found right there in their Bible (Genesis 1:29):
29 Then God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding
seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has
fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you.”
If the “lower animals” communicate with each other, I wouldn’t be
surprised if they criticize others by saying that “he/she behaves almost
as badly as one of those humans!”
We humans can choose to live closer to God’s original intent by going
vegan. It’s good for us, for the other animals, and for the earth that
we all share.
